-An alteration in the procedure
for selection of the members of the
judicial system's court of appeals,
the presiding judge, and a com-
plaint referee who would adminis-
ter the system. Under the commit-
tee's plan, the appointments to
these posts would be approved by
SGC, Senate Assembly, and the
Regents. Under the regental. draft,
SGC and Senate Assembly would
nominate a slate of candidates
equal to double the vacancies, from
which the Regents would make the
actual appointment.

in West Quad to discuss the rec-
ommendations of the Rates Com-
mittee regarding next year's dorm
contract rates.
The board hopes to approve the
committee's recommendations in
time for them to be considered at
the Regents meeting on Friday.
The Rates Committee presented
the possibility that they may be
able then to recommend a some-
what smaller increase than the
$137 already proposed.
The matter of additional student
housing was discussed, but con-
troversy over the best site for the
proposed low-cost housing units
prevented the endorsement of a
number of recommendations made
by the ad hoc housing board, a
student subcommittee of the policy
board.
All board members agreed that
construction of a large number of
apartment units was an urgent
need. However, ecological objec-
tions were raised to two specifical-
ly proposed sites for the construc-
tion, the former Residential Col-
lege site in the Huron River Val-
ley and part of the golf course at
Stadium and Main St.

Approved: MOVE: The following
statement's conclusions:
The management at the A & P
Food Store at 413 E. Huron has issued
rn ultimatum to five of its male em-
ployees to "get their hair cut" to an
acceptable length or face suspension.
Management claims that these em-
ployees signed an agreement when theyj
were hired, in which they (the em-
ployees) agreed to keep their hairI
properly 'ttapered" up the back of
their head. This sort of agreement
management claims is forced on all
their male employees in accordance
with national A & P policy. Checks at
other local A & P's confirms that such
appearance regulations are nationalI
A & P policy. women are allowed anyI
hair length, as long as it is kept neat.
SGC has checked with Wrigley's, K-
( Mart, K & S Food Market, Food Mart,
Food and Drug, Big Top and White's
Market (a sample including both chain
stores and small independent stores)
and has discovered that none of these
stores follow a similar culturally re-
pressive employment policy against
males.
Anyone in the community can see by
'simple observation that the A & P
is more than happy to sell food and to
accept money from persons with any
length hair.
In view of the above and the insid-
ious attempts of therAtlantic and
Pacific Tea Co. to force its cultural
values on itsemployees, SGC urges all
people whose eyes fall on this state-
ment to refuse to buy at all A & P
Food Stores, in particular the store at
413 S. Huron, until the threat of su-
spension against its "long" haired
employees is lifted and its policy in
hiring is changed. We also urge people
to communicate to the management
at the Huron Store their refusal to buy
at A & P and their anger over the re-
Sgulations and suspension. We also urge
people to write to regional A & P man-
agement in Detroit at 5470 Hecla, Zip
48232.
Five employees face suspension with-
in the coming week of February 14th.
So please act now.
STUDENT GOVERNMENT COUNCIL
UNANIMOUSLY PASSED THE
IFOLLOWING MOTION ON MILITARY
F AND CLASSIFIED RESEARCH AT
ITS MEETING FEBRUARY 10, 1971
That SGC adopt the following posi-
f tion concerning military and classified
research.
The University of Michigan is now
conducting millions of dollars worth
of research to perfect weapon systems
and sub-systems which are being used
by the military to kill and incapaci-
tate human beings.
The issue that faces the University
community is simple. When the Uni-
versity accepts contracts from the De-
partment of Defense it provides the
military with more effective ways to
destroy and kill. If the goal of the'
University is to preserve and enhance
human life and resources, how can we
i allow this research to continue?
First, to agree to accept all research
is neither socially neutral nor re-
sponsible. The Department of De-
fense has the money, therefore it can
provide the most lucrative contracts to
the University. For the University to
accept those contracts is an endorse-
ment of the, status quo. Further, to
claim neutrality when the research
done here is now being used in U.S.
and South Vietnamese military efforts
Sin Indochina is morally indefensible.
The illusion of neutrality in accept-
ing these research contracts is clearly
shattered.

Second, the argument that the re-
suilts of this research can be used for
peaceful prrposes is not valid. When
research is funded by military agencies.
it is used by the military for its own
purposes. This research, especially when
it is classified, is not available fo
peaceful applications.
Third, the present criteria that class-
ified research cannot., be done if its
primary purpose is the development of
new technimues for destroying human
life is totally inadequate. The commit-
tee on Classified Research has only
stopped one contract. Committee mem-
bers do not even see the contracts, but
rather only a summary of the propos@
research.
Fourth, research done for peaceful
purposes does not have to be classi-
fied. The secrecy which now discredits
research done at the University can be
lifted.
In the light of the information
known about classified and war re-
search, SGC calls for the following
action:
1) An end to all classified research.
Contract proposals must be available
to anyone on demand.
2) An end to all research funded by
the Department of Defense or any
other military agency.
3) A new committee must be set up
to oversee all future research, to in-
clude a proportionate number of undek
graduates as well as graduate students.
Student Government Council realizes
that this stand on research in itself
will have little effect unless large num-
bers in the University demonstrate
their protest verbally and physically.
As preliminary steps, SGC calls for:
1) Immediate availability of all re-
search contracts to anyone in the Uni-
versity.
2) An opening of meetings of the
Classified Research Committee.
3) A demonstration of opposition to
military and classified research at next
week's Regents' meeting,
SOC will work with other individuals
and groups in effective but non-violent
ways, to end all military and classi-
fied research. The University must
longer be permitted to aid any form
of U.S. imperialism.
Student Government Council passed
the following motion on OSS Place-
ment Policy oi Recruitment at i t s
meeting February 10, 1971:
WHEREAS: SGC has long taken the
position that racist corporations should
not be allowed to recruit using Uni
versity Placement services; and
WHEREAS: The OSS Placement Pol-
icy on Recruitment provides an effec-
tive mechanism to prevent corporations
that practice discrimination anywhere
in the world from using OSS Place-
ment services;
WHEREAS: If the University's state-
ment against discrimination is to have
any meaning, then all placement of*
cers in the University must adopt a
similar policy;
BE IT RESOLVED: That SGC strong-
ly recommends that the Regents adopt
the Office of Student Services Policy
on Recruitment for all other University
placement offices;
FURTHER: That if the Regents at-
tempt to revoke this policy within
OSS, then they will be responsible fed
the crisis which would definitely de-
velop;
FURTHER: That copies of this mo-
tion and the motion on Recruiting
passed by SGC on October 7, 1970 be
sent to Vice President Knauss and
the Regents.

Unidentified
The identity of a body found by
a student behind Rackham Mon-
day morning remained a mystery
yesterday as fingerprint checks in
Lansing and Washington proved
negative.
The body of the approximately
50 year-old male carried no identi-
fication papers but police are not
treating the case as murder.
Ann Arbor Police Chief Walter
Krasny said yesterday that the
man probably slipped and fell
while intoxicated during last Fri-
day's snowstorm. Krasny added
that a whiskey bottle was found,
near the body.
